Question

(8%) Problem 12: A bowling ballm1.6 kg is dropped from a height h. It falls a distance, d, before encountering a large tube r 4.2 m which is connected by two bolts, each of which can sustain a force of F-190 N before failing ©theexpertta.com 50% Part (a) Write an expression for the maximum distance, d, above the pipe from which the ball can be dropped so the bolts do not fail.

Explanation / Answer

a) we know,
speed of the ball at the bottom of the tube,

v = sqrt(2*g*(d+r))

Normal force acting on the ball, N = m*g + m*v^2/r

2*F = m*g + m*v^2/r

2*F = m*g + m*2*g*(d+r)/r

2*F = m*g*(1 + 2*(d+r)/r)

2*F/(m*g) = 1 + 2*d/r + 2

2*F/(m*g) - 3 = 2*d/r

==> d = (r/2)*(2*F/(m*g) - 3)

b) d = (4.2/2)*(2*190/(1.6*9.8) - 3)

= 44.6 m <<<<<<------------Answer
